Geunyeoreul moreumyeon gancheob

"Spy Girl" (aka "Geunyeoreul moreumyeon gancheob") is not an extraordinary movie by the usual standards of these types of South Korean movies, but it is still entertaining enough for what it turned out to be. While it is not up to par with "She's On Duty", for example, this 2004 movie does have some good moments and a nice story.

The story is about a North Korean spy who travels to South Korea and goes undercover, where she finds her life thrown upside down with a lovestruck young man fighting desperately for her love and attention.

Story-wise then "Spy Girl" is adequate, it doesn't really offer any laughs though. It is just not that type of comedy. However, it is a nicely told romantic story.

The actors and actresses in the movie were doing good jobs with their roles and characters. And the two lead talents had good chemistry together on the screen.

"Spy Girl" is the type of movie that you watch a single time, and am very unlikely to watch a second time. It just didn't have that repeated viewing quality to it.

If you enjoy South Korean romantic comedies then you should sit down to watch "Spy Girl" if you have the time and the chance to do so. I am rating it a five out of ten stars as it just didn't stand out from countless other South Korean romantic comedies.
